Alpha (about 2 months) – Steam Season 1 Pass owners will be able to play a “sketchy” version of Umbrella while she’s still early in development (similar to the original 2nd Encore downloadable content characters).

While we don’t have any official dates to share, since Umbrella is being developed in parallel for 2nd Encore and Mobile, you’re going to be able to play her earlier than ever! Hungern is quite RAVENOUS and dangerous when he is hungry but not yet STARVING-expect to be rewarded if you can maintain this narrow window of power! Umbrella players will have to manage Hungern’s hunger level or at least adapt to how her moves change based on Hungern’s state. If Hungern is OVERSTUFFED, moves that involve him conjuring something from the depths of his stomach may have bonus effects. Hungern will get hungrier as the match goes on or after performing certain actions, and his hunger level will influence his move properties.įor example, If Hungern is STARVING, normals that use him are slower, but moves that involve devouring the opponent are stronger. Most of her attacks will involve Hungern in some way. While she is slow with limited movement options, she can use special moves to approach with some risk. Umbrella is a small character with BIG swings thanks to her living weapon, Hungern. Please note that this is all HEAVILY subject to change after further testing and development, and the terms used to describe her toolkit and states are a work in progress… While Umbrella is still very early on in development, we wanted to share some details about where her gameplay direction is heading at the moment.
